  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION
  • The present disclosure provides a plastic light-folding element, and the plastic light-folding element includes an incident surface, an exit surface, a reflective surface and a reflective optical layer. The incident surface is configured to lead an imaging light enter the plastic light-folding element. The exit surface is configured to lead the imaging light exit the plastic light-folding element. The reflective surface is configured to fold the imaging light. The reflective optical layer is disposed on a surface of the reflective surface, and the reflective optical layer includes an Ag layer, a bottom layer optical film and a top layer optical film. The Ag layer is configured to lead the imaging light, which enters the incident surface, reflect to the exit surface. The bottom layer optical film is directly contacted with the Ag layer, and the bottom layer optical film is closer to the reflective surface of the plastic light-folding element than the Ag layer to the reflective surface of the plastic light-folding element. A refractive index of the top layer optical film is lower than a refractive index of the bottom layer optical film, wherein the top layer optical film is not directly contacted with the Ag layer, and the top layer optical film is farther from the reflective surface of the plastic light-folding element than the Ag layer from the reflective surface of the plastic light-folding element. When the refractive index of the bottom layer optical film is Nb, a thickness of the bottom layer optical film is db, the refractive index of the top layer optical film is Nt, a thickness of the top layer optical film is dt, and a thickness of the Ag layer is dAg, the following conditions are satisfied: 1.4<Nt<Nb<2.1; 1.6<Nb<2.1; 1.4<Nt<1.58; 0.05<db/dAg<1.2; and 0.2<dAg/dt<3.5.
  • In particular, the plastic light-folding element of the present disclosure is an optical element disposing the Ag layer on the reflective surface made of a plastic material for folding the imaging light. The physical adhesion between the Ag layer and the reflective surface made of the plastic material is enhanced via the bottom layer optical film, and the higher refractive index can be maintained via the bottom layer optical film so as to reduce the unnecessary reflection inside the plastic light-folding element to increase the image restoration of the imaging light.
  • The plastic light-folding element can further include a connecting surface and a gate vestige structure. The connecting surface is connected to the incident surface, the exit surface and the reflective surface. The gate vestige structure is disposed on the connecting surface. The injecting efficiency of the injection molding can be enhanced by disposing the gate vestige structure on the connecting surface, and the better optical flatness and the better circular symmetry consistency of the incident surface, the exit surface and the reflective surface can be obtained by simultaneously forming the incident surface, the exit surface and the reflective surface.
  • The bottom layer optical film can be a metal oxide layer. In particular, the metal oxide layer includes a metal material, the stronger binding force between the metal oxide layer and the Ag layer and the stronger binding force between the metal oxide layer and the plastic material can be simultaneously obtained, and hence the binding force between the bottom layer optical film made of the metal oxide and the metal material is higher than the binding force between the bottom layer optical film made of the non-metal oxide and the metal material. In other words, the better adhesion of the Ag layer to the plastic material can be obtained via the metal oxide layer. It should be mentioned that an ordinary adhesive test is to stick the tape on a surface of the optical layer and then tear off the tape to check the surface condition of the optical layer, and the quality of the adhesion is determined via the surface condition of the optical layer, wherein the more serious test condition can be obtained by increasing the numbers of sticking and tearing off the tape, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In particular, the bottom layer optical film can be made of Al2O3, the top layer optical film can be made of a non-metal oxide, such as SiO2.
  • The plastic light-folding element can further include at least one intermediate layer, wherein the intermediate layer is disposed between the top layer optical film and the Ag layer. Via the intermediate layer, the Ag layer can be protected so that the Ag layer is not easily oxidized, and the ability of the resistant to the corrosion of acid and alkali of the Ag layer can be enhanced, but the effect of the intermediate layer is not limited thereto.
  • The intermediate layer can include a metal layer excluding a silver atom. In particular, the material of the metal layer can be Ti, Cr, Ni and so on, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The surface stability of the Ag layer can be enhanced via the metal layer excluding the silver atom so that the Ag layer is not easily influenced by the external environment, and the combination between the Ag layer and the metal layer excluding the silver atom is better.
  • The bottom layer optical film can be directly contacted with the reflective surface of the plastic light-folding element. Therefore, the degree of the optical reflection of the Ag layer can be enhanced to maintain the higher optical reflectivity. In particular, the degree of the optical reflection of the silver atom is better than the degree of the optical reflection of the aluminum atom, and the reflecting effect of the Ag layer can be not easily influenced and decreased via the plastic material by disposing the bottom layer optical film.
  • When the thickness of the Ag layer is dAg, the following condition can be satisfied: 75 nm<dAg<200 nm. The reflecting effect of the imaging light can be better via the Ag layer with the proper thickness, and the degree of the reflection of the light wavelengths of the different imaging light bands can be more consistent. Therefore, the better degree of the restored image of the imaging light can be obtained, and the reflecting image can be more delicate, more realistic and gentler. It should be mentioned that the inconsistent thickness of the Ag layer with the excessively thick is easily obtained so that the distortion of the reflecting image is caused.
  • When the thickness of the bottom layer optical film is db, and the thickness of the top layer optical film is dt, the following condition can be satisfied: 0.05<db/dt<1.1. The better optical characteristic of the plastic light-folding element can be obtained by the thinner bottom layer optical film. In particular, the optical characteristic can be the color rendering of the image light, the restoring degree of the image light or the detail of the image light, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
  • When a lowest reflectivity of a reflectivity of the reflective optical layer between wavelengths of 540 nm to 590 nm is R5459, the following condition can be satisfied: 94.0%<R5459<99.99%. By the high reflectivity of the visible light band, the authenticity of the image can be faithfully presented, and the addition loss of the original light by the plastic light-folding element can be reduced to enhance the imaging quality.
  • Each of the aforementioned features of the plastic light-folding element can be utilized in various combinations for achieving the corresponding effects.
  • The present disclosure provides an imaging lens assembly module, which includes the aforementioned plastic light-folding element and an optical imaging lens assembly, wherein the plastic light-folding element is disposed on one of an object side and an image side of the optical imaging lens assembly. In particular, the imaging lens assembly module can be applied to the telephoto (that is, the full view is less than 40 degrees) by the disposition of the plastic light-folding element. Therefore, the volume of the imaging lens assembly module can be effectively reduced.

Therefore, the degree of the optical reflection of the Ag layer 114 a can be enhanced to maintain the higher optical reflectivity. In particular, the degree of the optical reflection of the silver atom is better than the degree of the optical reflection of the aluminum atom, and the reflecting effect of the Ag layer 114 a can be not easily influenced and decreased via the plastic material by disposing the bottom layer optical film 114 b.
  • When the refractive index of the bottom layer optical film 114 b is Nb, a thickness of the bottom layer optical film 114 b is db, the refractive index of the top layer optical film 114 c is Nt, a thickness of the top layer optical film 114 c is dt, a refractive index of the Ag layer 114 a is NAg, and a thickness of the Ag layer 114 a is dAg, the following conditions of the Table 1 are satisfied.
  • TABLE 1
    1st example
    Nb 1.6726 db (nm) 20
    Nt 1.4618 dt (nm) 65
    NAg 0.051 dAg (nm) 100
  • It should be mentioned that the refractive index of the air is 1, the refractive index of the plastic light-folding element 110 is 1.64678, and a thickness of each of the intermediate layers 117 is less than the thickness of the Ag layer 114 a.
  • FIG. 1F is a schematic view of a reflectivity result according to the 1st example in FIG. 1A. Table 2 is a reflectivity result according to the 1st example.
